Health Overview

Smart Health Sensing

Optical sensing technologies from ams provide for accurate detection and measurement of a wide range of biometric parameters. Integrated modules from ams enable the development of wearable medical devices for continuous health monitoring, of low-dose medical scanners, of new connected forms of personal medical appliances, and of point-of-care diagnostic equipment.

Machine Vision Overview

Machine Vision

Machine vision applications which require the highest resolution and image quality were once the preserve of proven CCD image sensor technology.

More recently, advances in CMOS image sensor design and fabrication have brought these devices’ image quality up to a similar standard to that of CCD image sensors, while offering important advantages that CCD technology cannot: low power consumption, integration of digital functions and high data rates.

By advancing the state of the art in CMOS image sensing, ams is today able to offer unprecedented levels of performance and quality, leading to ever wider adoption of CMOS technology in machine vision systems.

Mobile & Wearable Overview

Mobile & Wearable

The development of ultra-low power and low-noise silicon devices for imaging and for environmental, optical and audio sensing is giving manufacturers new opportunities to extend the range of functions and applications that mobile products address.

Smartphones, smart watches, smart wristbands and other personal products are becoming the connected hubs for functions such as health and fitness tracking and air quality monitoring. These same products’ performance and security are enhanced by features such as ambient light sensing and user face recognition.

These and many other applications are enabled by the latest mobile sensor technologies from ams.
